ComEd is excited to announce the winners of our “Powerful Design” contest, in which Chicago-area architecture students were invited to created design concepts for a new training facility on Chicago’s South Side.
The winning design, Seed of Light, was submitted by Daniel Caven and Andrea Zuniga from the Illinois Institute of Technology (IIT).
Each member of the winning team will receive a paid summer internship at Design Organization, the Chicago architecture firm selected by ComEd to direct and manage design implementation. The winning team also received a $1,500 cash prize.
ComEd will build the 62,000 square foot LEED-certified building, as well as a 240,000-square-foot outdoor training center, as a direct result of the historic Energy Infrastructure Modernization Act enacted last fall. The construction of the training facility and the jobs it will bring also will give a welcome boost to the local economy. The facility will showcase Smart Grid technologies and will train a new generation of utility workers by providing them with the skills needed to modernize our electric grid.
The “Powerful Design” contest and the new training facility offer unique opportunities for the workforce of tomorrow. Both are great examples of how ComEd is transforming the way it serves its customers and Powers Lives.
